Or more like..."Ack! December!!!" It's disgustingly cliche, but I really don't know where the time sped off to in the past couple of months. I while my days away stuffing envelopes and phoning caterers about missing table linens that someone else never thought to order or tell me about ordering, and I guess the hours just slide away without me bothering to think much about it. Sad, it seems when I do stop to think about it.
Anyway, it's the Xmas time of year; you know, when it's dark all the time and traffic blows more than usual and wonderful classic songs like "Feliz Navidad" and that damn "Simply Having a Wonderful Christmastime" Paul McCartney travesty can be heard resounding from the heavens all day every day. Yeah, I'm a grinch. Though, as I remarked to my good friend Lanester recently, I have felt more charitable about Xmas this year...I think it has something to do with the fact that no one has any money to go buy ridiculously unnecessary gifts for each other this year so the season feels more authentic somehow...like more how the holidays felt to me as a little kid -- no pressure, just fun.
Also, I get some time off work, so that's always the best gift of all.
